Wanted Wanted wind deflector

i have one, a oem one, not sure on the locating size, i may go measure.. anyhoooo will get a pic and measurements
this just pushes into the holes on rear shelf, i have measured the pole gap and it looks to be where you want, it all works as it should so folds down when not in use, and locks in place when you do use it.
not sure on price, as the prices are somewhat all over , i have advertised it at £150 ages ago, but was a poor picture.
so happy for an offer.

Pre face-lift model one is 75mm
Face-lift model is 70 mm
They absolutely will not fit each other
Face-lift model 70 mm ones are very difficult to find majority that you see for sale turn out to be pre face-lift model ones .
The other options is spend £300 retro fitt roll bars @spurs fan in a coupe had a set for sale then you can fit an oe mesh deflector or a perspex one ( both easily available) and have the added peace of mind of the extra safety provided by the factory hoops

@elevensies your zed is a pre face-lift so your deflector will not be the correct one

The pins on the face-lift model are closer together because the face-lift has larger rear speakers so the rear of speakers would be in the way so the face-lift model had different turrets different brackets under the turrets ( they are smaller being closer to the middle of the car ) and a different deflector.
When i first bought a zed ( the face-lift dakar) i inadvertently bought pre face-lift model one no chance of it fitting.
I had 2 sets of turrets 2 sets of brackets with a bit drilling new holes and cutting away part of the brackets to clear the speakers i managed to get the pre face-lift model one to fit but far from straightforward.

Hi elevenses,
Thanks for taking the time to reply and send photos of the 70cm windbreak. I was considering an aftermarket version from a German company for £169 so timely response. Would you consider £125. Where are you located as I may be able to collect to save on postage. If you prefer you can email me on varrialeg@gmail.com Many thanks Mike
